MLYCD gene
Active
Description
The MLYCD gene (malonyl-CoA decarboxylase) [HGNC Gene ID:7150] is located on chromosome 16q23.3. The product of this gene catalyzes the breakdown of malonyl-CoA to acetyl-CoA and carbon dioxide. Malonyl-CoA is an intermediate in fatty acid biosynthesis, and also inhibits the transport of fatty acyl CoAs into mitochondria. Consequently, the encoded protein acts to increase the rate of fatty acid oxidation. It is found in mitochondria, peroxisomes, and the cytoplasm. Mutations in this gene result in malonyl-CoA decarboyxlase deficiency. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] [NCBI Gene ID:23417] Source: National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI) Gene
